Description

Hachinohe-Same, from the Collection of Views of Japan, Eastern Japan Edition published in 1933, depicts the coastal district of Same — the harbored inlet adjacent to Hachinohe, Aomori Prefecture's second city and a major Pacific fishing port. Same's sheltered inlet, protected from the Pacific by a rocky headland, was the location of the fishing fleet that made Hachinohe prosperous, and Hasui's composition likely captures the harbor's working waterfront with fishing boats at their moorings under the overcast sky typical of Aomori's Pacific coast.
